    So, I got my own header in there. Not sure what code was there before, but in my header.php I have this bit:

    <div id="header">
    	<div id="logo">
    		<?php
    			$h_img = get_header_image();
    			if($h_img) {
    		?>
    		<a href="<?php echo home_url(); ?>"><img src=http://www.memoryboxhut.com/wp-content/themes/wappos/images/header.jpg alt="Memory Box Hut" /></a>
    		<?php } else { ?>
    		<div id="sitename"><a href="<?php echo home_url(); ?>"><?php bloginfo('name'); ?></a></div>
    		<?php } ?>
    	</div><!--// logo -->
    
    	</div>
    
    </div><!--// header -->

    I made my header in powerpoint, saved as a .jpg. Then I used Resize! (http://www.kstudio.net/re.html) to adjust it until I got it the size I wanted before uploading via FTP. Took a few trials and errors to get it perfect, but now I like it. Had to totally ignore the built-in tool with Wappos to do it, though.

    Is there a WordPress-Facebook forum somewhere that I missed? I know that there’s something in the theme’s code somewhere since the default Wappos header is a choice even though it doesn’t appear (visually) on my page anywhere. I just don’t know how to find that image and replace it with my own.

    “it” is Facebook itself. When you attach a link to a status, Facebook looks for images to include as a thumbnail for your post. (I have no idea how it determines what could be a thumbnail and what can’t.)

    As far as the thumbnail in the pages, I am just inserting the picture into the page itself. I guess I don’t need actual thumbnails. I’m not using it to blog, and I don’t have any posts, nor do I anticipate actually ever having posts.
